Or know a trademark attorney? I don’t have an encyclopedic knowledge of all the surly attorneys and what they do, so I’ll tag a few and see if y’all can help direct me or direct me to someone @TwiceHorn @South Austin @Brisketexan @Ghost of LL @dcbc @Gatorubet. I know Twice is a patent guy, which isn’t the same but seems adjacent.
anyway, we’ve got a big rich company trying to bully my small business over their “trademark” which is the equivalent of a state name and a general commodity, like Nebraska Corn or California Water or Texas Pecans or Maryland Crab Cakes and they’re saying we can’t use those select words next to each other in any way because it’s their trademark. It’s obvious bullshit, but they’re bullies. Every general attorney I’ve talked to laughs at the premise.
So not sure if anyone can point me in the direction of someone who can help. So if I missed an attorney kindly tag them here. I’ve just got a couple simple questions.
